I would probably just do heel raises paused barbell squats instead then , a belt squat I think is an utterly useless quad movement when the weight is pulling you down from under your hips , it’s very hard to bias the quad

tried them in the past. It’s good but it is always my lower and upper back that limits me.

With the belt squat yesterday I pushed for 25 reps and my quads literally escaped. Never hit them that good with a compound. This belt squat allowed me to fight the last reps out with everything I’ve got. Had to took a seat afterwards for a couple of minutes.

Oh excuse me for my late reply.

Deadlifts worked fine. Recently I switched so SLDL (you got me on the SLDL-Hypetrain). There was no issue.

I pulled the muscle on unilateral movement. Actually I just use belt squat variations für my quads. I at least imagine feeling the adductor a bit, but not to an extend that is uncomfortable. So if that was a tear, then maybe just some fibers. Or just a pulled muscle without any tearing.

The initial discomfort (going into deep squat position) was gone after a week). This was the second pull on this leg (last was 1.5 year ago on the outer quad). A slow cadence really works in rehabilitating such things.

Thanks guys.

I will consider this for my setup. Wedges and upright (= hip angle as wide as possible).

I have no access to a hack oder leg press.

I use the natty stack and it increases my testosterone by 5 to 6 mmol after running bloods.

Can you give me a baseline?

What was interesting, a stopped training and supplementing for one week for vacation. My Bodyweight jumped 3-4 pounds up. But I didn’t eat that much, that this could be all fat. Now a week and a half back in training this weight doesn’t drop.

[B]

You tried alpha T with it? Im currently using the combo of turk, ecdysterone and Alpha T

No, never seen that.

[B]

So I got my hands on beta-acdysterone as well (240mgs / Cap). We will see how I progress. With turk only i think there was a slight push in weight…

To get more clear and spare you looking through the full workout:

Workout in a homegym.

The FB setup wants me to rotate 4 exercises for each body part (2 heavy and 2 light): does the following count as variation:

1) Heavy Incline db press

2) Db press flat

3) Heavy db press flat (second time flat db press)

4) Decline cable press

for 3) I could maybe use a very very slight angle to make it a little bit inclined…

Same for some other muscles, where variation is a bit difficult.

[B]

Oh I forgot to mention, in a few weeks I get ab belt squat. Think that could be very good for leg development because lower back won’t limit as with squat.

[B]

By the above logic , we would only need 15g leucine a day to grow…..so now we can acknowledge thats silly

lets use common sense , its a meal that we are trying to replicate, so having as close to a full serving of protein is as ideal as possible, the min i would classify as a meal would be 20g , so having a serving and half of peak aminos would be a gd start point, or peak aminos + more regular eaa

I didn’t want to say we only need 15g Leucin. Just that 3g triggers MPS to mostly the max. Of course you need other aminos as well tu build new tissue.
Maybe my formulation of this was not on point (English not mother language).
And I do not know any Whey except one that gives about 3g Leucin in 20g protein.

[B]

The 20gram for maxing out MPS is not correct. That was proven in studies where 20g Isolat contained 3g Leucin (must be spiked or super serum Whey?). Leucin triggers MPS.

Most eaa contain this 3g Leucin per serving. So you get the maxed MPS

[B]

Yes. You can do a close grip press with a barbell , or a smith machine .
You can also do a JM press on a smith machine too , but that’s a different exercise. If you need to see it I can send you in DM , or better yet go to the video section and watch one of my delt & arms videos. 🙂[/quote]

This exercises is a beast. Strengthens the tris for pushing once you nailed execution.

Enjoyed nice progress. New Setups for Push worked way better. Deadlifts also were really good. Second set was stiff legged.

Was a good training. Changed my incline dumbbell press as @Oscar suggested and it worked way better. Also reduced load slightly on the first two push exercises.

I am curious when the Turk will kick in.

[B]

oh if I could put on similar good 6 pounds, that would be a good thing.

They content states 500mg per cap. Didn’t find many threads here in regard to turkesteron and dosage, where would you start?

[B]

The last push-up I got up about 25. pounds in weight but didn’t gain anything got injured in the process and lost all during the cut. Now with your training concept I gained the first 6 pounds literally without fat in 2-3 minths
